I have been using medicated chick starter while chicks are around in my flock then switching to grower which is also medicated.. So just checking if it's ok to continue this? I have been for last 2 years!! I am not pro use of layer feed with roosters and have pullets in the mix anyway who aren't laying.

The medicated feed is 'natural'
--Contains ENTX and Orego-Stim® – natural essential oils that provide effective protection against coccidiosis.

So is it ok to use this medicated feed long term?
 
Not familiar with those plant extracts, its not the way Cocci is usually addressed here in the US. Supposedly, its widely used and or studied in the EU - possibly one of our friends across the pond can help out here. Without knowing how those extracts are supposed to work, I wouldn't want to even begin to speculate.
